      Need an ISP

      Anyone know a good ISP in the Virginia area?

      I can't get comcast or verizon because we owe them too much. And clearwire is out of the question, i have that now but we gotta cancel, cause the connection keeps going out and i just found out we have limited bandwidth with clearwire.

      Basically i need unlimited bandwidth for cheap, or at least fast bandwidth that you can use excessively.

      I need to be able to stream videos, download, etc. you know the works.

      US infrastructure is pretty bad compared to places like Japan.

      Hmm I am getting ~17mbps, not that bad I guess. The average in the US is around 6, I think. So that means I have about 3 times the average. I gotta feel bad for them.
